Hi,
I suggest that Hubpages emails its members in california, and signs the following referendum.
http://blog.linkshare.com/2011/08/01/wi … -suspended
If you guys want to stay in California you need to be writing to your local political figures, kicking up a fuss, and help make sure that as many california writers in Hubpages as possibel sign this to help turn back the Affiliate nexus tax laws.
And since when does Hubpages do what it's members tell it to do? We're just the dumb minions
The point is not that HP should do something; it is that any writers that live in California and thus might have a voice in legislation in that state should complain.
I've never been a fan of companies telling their employees or their customers how to vote or what petition to sign. While I'm sad that this law causes some income losses to Californian HubPages users (I will be a California user soon,) I couldn't support a company asking me to vote a certain way -- even if it were the way I was going to vote in the first place.
You do realize that Hubpages is based in California - this means that if they don't work out a deal with Amazon, they're likely to lose their Amazon affiliate ID.

Sad but true...I'd been having trouble with getting a Revver video to work in the video capsule since it was announced HP added support for that site, so I wrote to admin. For those of you unfamiliar with Revver, the permalinks for Revver videos happen include the affiliate code of the person...

Looks like CA Amazon affiliates might be the next to find themselves dropped from the program...http://taxprof.typepad.com/taxprof_blog … asses.html
